Biomarker for the prediction of primary non function of a liver graft

This disclosure relates to the technical field of liver transplantation and discloses a set of biomarkers that can be used to assess the quality of the liver graft before transplantation. More specifically, this disclosure describes a process of predicting the appearance of primary non function (PNF) of a liver graft via determining the relative abundance of the undergalactosylated glycans in the perfusate N-glycome of the liver before transplantation.
